Quote: "The Russian Federation is constantly taking measures to replenish its manpower losses. For example, one of the military units deployed in South Ossetia is actively working with conscripts to get them to sign contracts and participate in combat operations in Ukraine.

It has been established that between 1 March and 10 March, more than 50 Russian conscripts signed contracts. Without receiving proper combat training, they were sent to Melitopol, Zaporizhzhia Oblast."
